[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 939267, member: 63138"] Keep in mind that some bullet manufacturers ballistic coefficient test setups are based on Standard Metro conditions and some on ICAO conditions. If your ballistics program is based on Standard Metro you need to convert the BCs to Standard Metro for those manufacturers that use ICAO conditions by multiplying their BCs by 1.018. Berger, Nolser and Lapua use ICAO so.... for me the Berger 168 gr HVLD has a G1 BC of 0.507 versus the Sierra (who uses Standard Metro) of 0.462 at 2,600 fps and up. [/QUOTE]
